I found John Kinch's obituary in the Philadelphia Inquirer. He died May 15, 1904 in Camden. He is buried in the Evergreen cemetery in PA.?

Looking for the obit or death record of Elbert R. Kinch, died sometime after
1881, his father Abijah Kinch d. 12 May 1889 in Camden, NJ but directory said he
lived in Philly in 1890. His grandson John A. Kinch died sometime after 1900 in
Camden, NJ. not death record recorded in NJ.  Hope someone can help me. 

Thanks,
Mary Kinch

My gr-gr-grandfather, Phillip Flynn and his wife Catherine Sullivan Flynn lived in Phila. from approx. 1860-64. THey were born in 1830 in Ireland...lived in Brooklyn from around 1850 till their move to Phila. They had two daughters, Mary and Margaret born around 1862 or 63 in Phila. They might have lived on 38th and Thompson during those years. Question: where would I find their birth or baptismal records? Also, Phillip was employed with his brother, Charles as a heater...any idea of what that is?

Another cemetery is Pine Grove Memorial Park and Cemetery. Josephine Stohner was buried in the Odd Fellows Cemetery Sept. 10,1886. Since then as I said before that cemetery was closed and the graves moved. http://ajourneyintothepast.blogspot.com/2007/05/odd-fellows-cemeter...
This is a brief story on the cemetery.

Anyone have access to Lawnview Memorial and Mount Peace Cemeteries records?
The Odd Fellows Cemetery was closed in the 1950's just so they could build a housing develpoment,which I understand is now being torn down.

My line in Philadelphia is Stohner.Henry Stohner was a policeman on the 1900 census. I have a small amount of info before that but not much. He died somewhere after that because his son Raymond was in the Girard School in 1910.
I am looking for anything on him and his parents.

Just a suggestion, but... for those who are leaving a query about a surname, it would be more helpful to start a discussion above rather than leave a comment. In discussions, others can actually find your "comment" and respond to it.

I'm also working on my Maisch line, my great great grandmother was a Marguerite/Margaretta Maisch who married Gustavus Golze around 1860. They were both from Germany, Marguerite was from Hanau, I believe and I working to prove her as the sister of John Michael Maisch, who escaped from Germany in 1849 and became a highly respected pharmacist in Philadelphia.
